I set the video camera on night vision pointed at the hummingbird feeder on August 1, 2013 from 8pm to 9pm.
The first 9 minutes all you see is a “blur” until the first bat takes a drink. By 8:30 pm there are multiple bats feeding. We have seen 40+ bats at once as they set off the motion lights at the visitors center.
We have stood in the dark and let them fly all around us as they feed. We can hear and feel them fly by. We have yet to be hit by one, but did hear one hit the wall.

This year is just moving too damn fast. Don’t get me wrong, I love the late part of Summer and I really love the Fall season, but it just seem’s like it was April a few days ago.
Kickoff for football is getting soooooooooo much closer.
As is our departure date. Which is like 2 months from today. We still do not have a new gig. I have to get re fingerprinted for my Washington back ground check, last set of prints was too “smudged”.
I spoke to a State of Washington Parks and Recs personal and she told me to contact the parks we are interested in letting them know our applications are being processed now, but will be somewhat late due to my finger print issue.
We had some visitors spot a Mountain Lion yesterday. But I was unable to see any fresh signs indicating it was still in the area or not.

Yes. I know. Addicted. But it was my first Allen’s Hummingbird! And I could not have asked for better lighting, and high number of active Hummer’s feeding for the last hour or so of the day. I was all just … Continue reading
